Email marketing’s finest newsletters

Staying up to date with the latest industry developments, advancements and design trends is key for the email marketer on the go.

Luckily for us, the world is replete with sources of email marketing news. From outstanding blogs to excellent social media accounts, all the information we could ever hope for is out there to be read, analysed and utilised to improve our own approaches and strategies.

Which is great.

But we are busy people. We don’t have all day to spend just sitting around reading newsletters. We’d never get any work done!

If only someone would take the time to separate the newsletter wheat from the newsletter chaff so we could maximise our newsletter reading time…
